    This is not a paywall Please register or sign in

    I’ve never seen one of those full screen obnoxious windows actually going out of its way to declare itself as not being a paywall before. Interesting.

      uBlock Origin has a nifty Zap feature that works well on idiot web developer fads.

    I’m not sure if Boeing is going the same route we are, but blue collar people - the ones building and assembling airplanes - are treated like replaceable cogs. They aren’t taught the actual meaning or point of quality/quality management systems. It’s mostly warm bodies. When I ask people if they’ve read the specs that cover the processes they’re doing, they stare at me. It’s maddening. You’re performing a complex process solely on OJT? Fucking lunacy.

    I didn’t read this.

    But life isn’t what people think it is. Not many people are actually really living. And there’s a lot more evil in everyone’s daily lives than they could imagine. Right under their noses. It’s closer to a “worse case scenario” than it’s is freedom or living. Hell is real and we live there.

    …sorry for sounding so angsty and poetic? But it’s true. And we can’t even fix or change this it’s all so far gone, built by generations of greed and “evil”. There are no sides… Just you, just me all individually stuck in hell. Killing ourselves fighting limitless devil’s our naiveness of generations helped build and thrive.

      Please step away from screens for a bit. There are bad things/people in the world. Always have been, always will be. Your comment history has me worried for your sake.

      I didn’t read this, but did you guys know that Zerglings from the game StarCraft: Brood War have a unique upgrade called Adrenal Glands. After applying the upgrade they are colloquially referred to as “Cracklings” because they attack so quickly. This upgrade, only available after evolving a Hive, makes Zerglings extremely effective in the late game, and allows them to swarm enemy units and bases much more effectively. Despite their small size and low health, with this upgrade, Zerglings can become a critical component of the Zerg army, showcasing the game’s strategic depth and the importance of upgrades.
